12.7.2 Procedure for connecting the charger and
charging
Connect the battery charger round output plug to the •
charging socket on the front of the joystick module,
(Fig. 12.8-12.10).
Connect the charger to the mains supply by means •
of the mains plug and switch on.
The GREEN light will flash to show power is on and •
the charger is initialising.
The ORANGE light comes on to show that the •
batteries are charging.
Flickering between ORANGE and GREEN shows •
that charge is almost complete.
Solid GREEN indicates charge is complete. •
For more information about the charger
operation, consult the instructions provided with
the charger.
NOTE: If the charger is not connected to the wheelchair,
it does not output charge voltage.
The charger may be used with other brands of Gel
type batteries, subject to written confirmation from the
Technical Department of Sunrise Medical.
DANGER!
An extension cord should not be used unless •
absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension
cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
If any extension cord must be used, make sure the •
pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of the plug on the
charger; and that the extension cord is properly wired
and in good electrical condition.
WARNING!
Always switch off at the mains before disconnecting •
the batteries.
The charger is designed for indoor use. Do not use •
outdoors or expose to rain, snow, spray or moisture.
CAUTION!
When buying replacement batteries or charger always
consult your Sunrise Medical service agent. Do not leave
the charger connected to the battery with the mains
disconnected or switch ed off. This could result in damage
to your battery being caused by deep discharge over a
period of time.
To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and cord,
pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting
the charger.
